Skunk Train: Wolf Tree Turn from Willits

Overview

This 2 hour round trip will take you from the Willits valley floor to the highest point on our rail line. During this trip you will pass through Tunnel #2 and descend into the redwood-thick Noyo River Canyon – an amazing ecological wonderland, and an excellent opportunity to discover the mighty giants that made Mendocino County famous.

The train will stop briefly at Crowley while you enjoy the splendor of one of the oldest and most iconic trees along our route. The Wolf Tree was so named for the large growth off of one side – woodsman called these wolf trees because they choke out smaller trees and underbrush. Passengers are able to get off the train during our stop at Crowley, to better enjoy the views.

You'll make the trip to Crowley on board one of our historic Diesel-Electric engines.

Fabulous trip! They did a great job with social distancing and enforcing the mask rules. Snacks were available for purchase. We loved the history and facts shared throughout our journey to and from Willits. Great family outing.

We took the Skunk Train ride from Fort Bragg to the Redwoods. This is a cool old train from the late 1800's when this was a logging area. The train stops in the redwoods for 20 minutes. There is a 1 mile circular trail through the forest you can walk, and a collapsed tunnel you can see. The 20 minutes is enough to walk the trail only if you hurry:-). We went to the tunnel and walked less than half the trail before the whistle blew to return. Its a fun affordable train ride! We loved it, and the kids on the train really showed their excitement! Well worth the time!

Waste of time. They call it world famous, for what? There is nothing special about this train or even the ride. Do any train ride instead to driving here just looking at their advertisements. Will never recommend to anyone.
